Kimmo Paasiala:
Rumour is that something like that is going to happen with all of the
problematic libraries by making them private. If someone with inside
knowledge could confirm these rumours? ;)

Curious why this is a rumor?  Open source operating systems should be
developed transparently, shouldn't they?

This leads to another question. Where is the line going to be drawn
which libraries in the base system should be private? There are
certainly some of them that have to be public like libc and the
support libraries like libusb. There is certainly no sense in making
the ports system use full set of its own libraries for everything
either.

I'd be happy just to to 'make buildworld -DWITHOUT_OPENSSL'.
